In listening to the first half of the 18 tracks I thought certainly not the best one of the many Bevis Frond albums: this one is very varied and sometimes even experimental but not really interesting.
But in the last 7 tracks he makes up for that: it contains two of his best guitar pieces at which he always excells: Candles and Good Enough For You. And then comes the last track which is more than 13 minutes long and is a bit the twin brother of the first tracks: both are multi-faceted and contains a number of very different suites but that last track is so much more interesting.
